Armenian Studies Program Awards $75,000 in Scholarships to Forty-Nine Students in 2019-2020

Staff Report

The Armenian Studies Program awarded scholarships for the academic year 2019-2020 to forty-nine students from twenty-nine different endowment or scholarship funds for a total of $75,500. In addition to providing needed financial support, the scholarships encourage stu-dents to pursue Minors in Armenian Studies and to enroll in the various course offerings.
We ask our students and our supporters to tell their friends and relatives about the Armenian Studies Program Scholarship pro-gram and to encourage them to apply for the 2020-2021 academic year (application period will open in October of 2020). Applying has become simplified and is entirely online through the Program website at http://www.fresnostate.edu/artshum/armenianstudies/students/scholarships-offered.html and the University website at http://www.fresnostate.edu/studentaffairs/financialaid/scholarships/index.html
